Core temperature: 4 feet (or deeper) into the compost pile
Quanturi’s 1-meter and 2-meter probes are ideal for capturing both surface and core temperatures in windrows and static piles.
How often should compost temperature be checked?
With Quanturi wireless compost temperature monitoring system, readings can be collected automatically at predefined intervals—such as every 15 minutes or hourly—providing continuous insights without labour-intensive manual checks. It also sends alerts in case temperature exceeded your define limit. Measurement frequencies vary from sanitization to maturation phase. In most of the cases it is mandatory to check daily at least 1 time. This is especially critical during the sanitization phase.
How does Quanturi monitor compost temperature remotely?
Quanturi uses IoT-enabled temperature probes installed directly into the compost pile. These probes transmit temperature data wirelessly to a cloud-based monitoring platform, where users can:
View real-time and historical temperature trends
Set custom alerts for high or low temperatures
Share access with team members or inspectors
This allows full visibility and control over compost conditions from any location.
Where should compost temperature probes be placed?
For a complete temperature profiling of a compost pile, place probes approximately 4 feet off the ground. Measure at multiple depths to capture temperature variations across the pile. This approach provides a more accurate understanding of compost health and consistency.
Can compost temperature monitoring help with regulatory compliance?
Yes, compost temperature monitoring is a compliance requirement. Without it, you cannot sell or use compost. For example, RAL GZ 251, PFRP, and PAS 100.
